Description

Synchronization signal block sending method, device and network equipment
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, an apparatus, and a network device for transmitting kinds of synchronization signal blocks.
Background
The 5G synchronization signal block transmission method is very flexible, and most similar to LTE (long term evolution), the existing 5G synchronization signal block transmission scheme is:
1) time domain configuration: as shown in fig. 1, each cell transmits the time domain position using the same synchronization signal block transmission period T as that of the adjacent cell and the same synchronization signal block as that of the adjacent cell.
2) Frequency domain position: as shown in fig. 2, each cell uses the same frequency domain synchronization signal Block transmission position as that of the adjacent cell, that is, the center frequency point of the transmission SSB (SS Block, synchronization signal Block) of each cell is the same on the initial Bandwidth Part (initial BWP) of the initial access.
Furthermore, it is easily conceivable that, in the second conventional 5G synchronization signal block transmission scheme, as shown in fig. 1, the same time domain arrangement as in the scheme can be used, but in the frequency domain, as shown in fig. 3, each cell transmits a synchronization signal block at a frequency domain position different from that of the neighboring cell.
It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 1, an SMTC (SSB Measurement Timing Configuration, Measurement time domain Configuration information of a synchronization signal block) is a Measurement Configuration for measuring a 5G synchronization signal block, which is configured for a connected terminal by a system, and specifically includes a synchronization signal block Measurement period (Measurement window periodicity), a synchronization signal block Measurement window length (Measurement duration), and a position of the Measurement window length in the period (offset).
The transmission method of the conventional scheme is relatively simple, but when the synchronization Signal block is performed according to the conventional scheme , SINR (Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio) measured based on the 5G synchronization Signal block cannot be used as the 5G network planning index.
The network planning index is a parameter used for guiding network construction and reflecting a network construction performance target. The planning metrics of an LTE (long term evolution) network are CRS-RSRP (Reference Signal ReceivingPower) and CRS-SINR based on common Reference signals CRS. The CRS-RSRP represents the strength of the CRS, so that the coverage performance of the network after network construction is reflected; the CRS-SINR represents the interference condition of the CRS by a service channel, and the CRS-SINR reflects the service rate performance of the network after the network is built because the SINR has a mapping relation with the service rate.
5G cancels common reference signal CRS and defines that RSRP and SINR measurement can be based on secondary synchronization signal SSS in the synchronization signal block. Although RSRP and SINR measurements may also be based on other reference signals (e.g., CSI-RS), since SINR measurements based on 5G synchronization signal blocks (referred to as SS-RSRP and SS-SINR) do not occupy additional overhead and have good industrial maturity, the feasibility of using SS-RSRP and SS-SINR based on 5G synchronization signal block measurements as network planning indicators needs to be considered in priority.
When the existing scheme is adopted to send the synchronization signal blocks, the SS-RSRP measured based on the synchronization signal blocks can directly reflect the network coverage, but because the synchronization signal blocks of each cell are sent at the same frequency, the SINR measured based on the synchronization signal blocks can only reflect the interference situation of the synchronization signal blocks of each cell by the synchronization signal blocks of other cells, which causes the SS-SINR value to be completely unrelated to the cell load and cannot form a mapping relation with the service rate, and directly causes the SS-SINR not to be used for the network planning index.
When the second conventional scheme is adopted to send the synchronization signal blocks, although the synchronization signal blocks of each cell are sent at the same time and at different frequencies, the SINR measured based on the synchronization signal blocks can reflect the interference of a service channel to the synchronization signal blocks, so that the SINR can be mapped to a service rate and used as a planning index, large problems exist in the second conventional scheme, namely that when the central frequency points sent by 5G synchronization signal blocks are different, a pilot frequency measurement mechanism is required to be adopted when a terminal measures the synchronization signal blocks of adjacent cells, and a receiver frequency point is switched to an adjacent cell to measure the synchronization signal blocks.

Detailed Description
In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the following detailed description is given with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
As shown in fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides methods for sending a synchronization signal block, which are applied to a target cell, and include:
and step 41, the target cell sends the synchronization signal block at the target time domain position and the target frequency domain position in the synchronization signal block sending period. The synchronization Signal Block, i.e., synchronization Signal Block, may be referred to as SSB for short.
As shown in fig. 5, a synchronization signal block transmission period of the target cell is the same as a synchronization signal block transmission period of a neighboring cell of the target cell; the target time domain position is different from the time domain position of the adjacent cell of the target cell for sending the synchronous signal block in the synchronous signal block sending period.
As shown in fig. 2, the target frequency domain position is the same as the frequency domain position of the neighboring cell of the target cell transmitting the synchronization signal block within the synchronization signal block transmission period.
The target cell mentioned in the above embodiments of the present invention may be any cells in the network, as shown in fig. 5 and fig. 2, if cell 1 is the target cell, then cell 2, cell 3, and cell 4 are neighboring cells of the target cell, if cell 2 is the target cell, then cell 1, cell 3, and cell 4 are neighboring cells of the target cell, if cell 3 is the target cell, then cell 1, cell 2, and cell 4 are neighboring cells of the target cell, and if cell 4 is the target cell, then cell 1, cell 2, and cell 3 are neighboring cells of the target cell.
Typically, each cell maintains neighbor lists, which may be updated periodically or based on some triggering condition, and is not specifically limited herein.
As shown in fig. 5, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the starting position of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the target cell is the same as the starting position of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the neighboring cell of the target cell. That is, the time length of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the target cell is the same as the time length of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the adjacent cell, and the end position of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the target cell is the same as the end position of the synchronization signal block transmission period of the adjacent cell.
In the embodiment of the invention, because each cell (including the target cell and the adjacent cell) is sent at the same frequency and non-simultaneously, the SINR measured based on the synchronous signal block can reflect the interference of a traffic channel to the synchronous signal block, so that the SINR measured based on the synchronous signal block can be mapped to a traffic rate, and the SINR measured based on the synchronous signal block can be used as a network planning index.
Step , because each cell (including the target cell and the adjacent cell) transmits at the same frequency and non-simultaneously, the terminal does not need to adopt a different frequency measurement mechanism when measuring the synchronization signal block of the adjacent cell, and the synchronization signal block transmission method provided by the embodiment of the present invention does not affect the downlink data service rate of the serving cell, and improves the data transmission efficiency.
, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the method further comprises:
determining the initial position of a synchronous signal block sending period;
determining a target time domain offset between the target time domain position and the initial position of a synchronous signal block sending period;
and determining the target time domain position according to the target time domain offset.
In order to ensure that the target time domain position is different from the time domain position of the neighboring cell of the target cell for sending the synchronization signal block in the synchronization signal block sending period, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the time domain offset between the time domain position of the neighboring cell of the target cell for sending the synchronization signal block and the start position of the synchronization signal block sending period is different from the target time domain offset.
Preferably, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the step of determining the start position of the synchronization signal block transmission period includes:
determining a system frame number SFN for a frame satisfying the formula according to the formula , wherein,
the th formula is:
Figure BDA0001734851150000081
t is the time length of the sending period of the synchronous signal block;
and determining the frame header of the frame meeting the -th formula as the starting position of the sending period of the synchronization signal block.
Preferably, the duration of the synchronization signal block transmission period is typically 20ms, 40ms, 80ms, 160ms, etc., and is not limited herein.
At step , the step of determining the target time domain offset from the start of the synchronization signal block transmission period comprises:
according to a second formula, determining the target time domain offset between the target time domain position and the starting position of the synchronous signal block sending period as
Figure BDA0001734851150000082
Wherein the content of the first and second substances,
the second formula is: PCI mod N ═ M;
Figure BDA0001734851150000083
the time unit of T is the same as the time unit of 5, for example, the time unit of T is ms, and the time unit of 5 is ms.
The PCI is a physical cell identifier of a target cell, N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, T is the time length of a sending period of a synchronous signal block, and M is any values from 0 to N-1;
and the value of M corresponding to the target cell is different from the value of M corresponding to the adjacent cell of the target cell.
For example, when N is 2 and T is 40ms, N is 4, and the target cell has 3 neighboring cells, which are cell a, cell B, and cell C.
Then PCI mod 4 is 0 and corresponds to the target cell, that is, the target time domain offset between the target time domain position of the synchronization signal block sent by the target cell and the starting position of the synchronization signal block sending period is 0;
PCI mod 4 is 1, which corresponds to cell a, that is, the time domain offset between the time domain position of cell a for sending the synchronization signal block and the start position of the synchronization signal block sending period is T/4, that is, 10 ms;
PCI mod 4 is 2, corresponding to the cell B, that is, the time domain offset between the time domain position of the synchronization signal block sent by the cell B and the start position of the synchronization signal block sending period is 2T/4, that is, 20 ms;
PCI mod 4 is 3 for cell C, i.e. the time domain offset between the time domain position where cell C transmits the synchronization signal block and the start position of the synchronization signal block transmission period is 3T/4, i.e. 30 ms.
It should be noted that, a value of the physical cell identifier PCI mod N of the target cell is different from a value of the physical cell identifier PCI mod N of the neighboring cell of the target cell, for example, the PCI of the target cell and the PCI of the neighboring cell are continuously allocated; and the adjacent cell of the target cell and the target cell are frame synchronization cells.
In the above embodiment of the present invention, the process of determining the time domain positions of the synchronization signal blocks sent by multiple cells (which are adjacent cells) is as follows:
allocating a Physical Cell Identity (PCI) for each adjacent cell, and synchronizing frames of each adjacent cell;
determining the initial position of the sending period of the synchronous signal block of each adjacent cell;
determining the time domain position of each adjacent cell for sending the synchronous signal block:
for example, in a cell with PCI mod 4 equal to 0, the time domain offset of the SSB transmission position from the synchronization signal block transmission period start position is 0;
in the cell with PCI mod 4 being 1, the time domain offset of the SSB sending position compared with the starting position of the synchronous signal block sending period is T/4;
in the PCI mod 4-2 cell, the time domain offset of the SSB sending position compared with the starting position of the synchronous signal block sending period is T/2;
and in the cell with the PCI mod 4 being 3, the time domain offset of the SSB sending position from the synchronous signal block sending period starting position is 3T/4.
And finally, determining the transmission time length of each synchronization signal block by each adjacent cell, wherein the transmission time length is related to the maximum number of transmission beams of the synchronization signal block SSB, and when the maximum number of transmission beams of the SSB is 8, the transmission time length of the SSB of each adjacent cell is 2 ms.
, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the method further comprises:
configuring measurement time domain configuration information (SMTC) of a measurement synchronization signal block for a terminal; wherein the measurement time domain configuration information includes: a synchronization signal block measurement period, a synchronization signal block measurement window length, and an offset of the synchronization signal block measurement window length in the synchronization signal block measurement period. The offset of the synchronization signal block measurement window length in the synchronization signal block measurement period is specifically used to indicate the position information of the synchronization signal block measurement window length in the synchronization signal block measurement period.
In order to ensure that a connected terminal can measure a synchronization signal block of a serving cell and a neighboring cell, a synchronization signal block measurement period is less than a synchronization signal block transmission period, and a synchronization signal block measurement window length is equal to a synchronization signal block signal transmission time length.
Fig. 6 shows an preferred embodiment of a time-domain transmission method of a synchronization signal block according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein a synchronization signal block transmission period T is 40ms, and when a synchronization signal block SSB transmits 8 beams, a time-domain configuration of a synchronization signal block signal transmission scheme is as follows:
the synchronization signal block transmission period is 40ms, PCI mod 4 of each of the cells 1 to 4 is 0, 1, 2, and 3, and the corresponding SSB transmission position is 0, 10ms, 20ms, and 30ms from the start position of the synchronization signal block transmission period. The transmission duration of the SSB is 2ms (8 beams); in the SMTC, the measurement period of the synchronization signal block is 10ms, the measurement window length of the synchronization signal block is 2ms, and the offset of the start position of the measurement window length of the synchronization signal block, which is longer than the measurement period of the synchronization signal block, is 0.
In summary, in the above embodiments of the present invention, the target cell sends the synchronization signal block with the same period, different time domain position, and the same frequency domain position as the neighboring cell, since the time domain resources and the frequency domain resources of the synchronization signal block sent by each cell are different, the SINR and/or RSRP measured based on the synchronization signal block can be directly used as the network planning index, and further , since the frequency domain resources of the synchronization signal block sent by each cell are the same, the terminal does not need to use an inter-frequency measurement mechanism when measuring the synchronization signal block of the neighboring cell, so that the downlink data traffic rate of the serving cell is not affected.
